    My Recycle Bin in Windows Vista has vanished!
    Can anyone help with this problem? Let me explain first what I did before it disappeared. I installed CCleaner on my computer a few weeks ago, I remember seeing CCleaner options in the Recycle Bin Menu and decided to remove the same from the Menu, which I thought I did - by ticking boxes - in the CCleaner Settings. However, afterwards, my Recycle Bin disappeared completely from the Desktop and I have not been able to resolve this problem. If anybody can assist with this problem, please help.

    Thank you.

    No clue, but my solution would be windows restore, it's a stupid way I know. Backup you're materials into Portable USB and backup to yesterday or something

    It is a good idea and I have tried it, alas it did not work.

    Hi, I just got a new laptop and I deleted my recycle bin by mistake, to bring it back right click on the desktop, click personalization towards the bottom. On the left it should say Change Desktop Icons, click this and then under Desktop Icons select recycle bin, apply and OK. This Should put it back on the desktop screen for you.
